Chicago commie
Add Gallup to the Obama's enemy list! Team Obama is loaded with Chicago
goons who use intimidation as a political tool. Remember folks, this is the
same administration that attempted to get a 4-star General to change his
testimony<http://scottystarnes.wordpress.com/2011/09/19/general-shelton-white-house-push-for-testimony-change/>to
help out an Obama campaign donor and who tried to get the credit
agencies to hold off on the
downgrade<http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-07-18/politics/29985951_1_credit-rating-downgrade-debt-ceiling>.
Not to mention their enemies list

Internal emails between senior officials at The Gallup Organization,
obtained by The Daily Caller, show senior Obama campaign adviser David
Axelrod attempting to subtly intimidate the

polling
firm when its numbers were unfavorable to the president.
After Gallup declined to change its polling methodology, Obama’s Department
of Justice hit it with an unrelated lawsuit that appears damning on its
face.
TheDC is withholding the identities of the Gallup officials to protect them
from potential retaliation from Obama’s campaign and his administration.
In April, Axelrod
tweeted<https://twitter.com/davidaxelrod/status/192333709159047168>
that
a poll showing Mitt Romney with a 48-43 percent lead over Obama was
“saddled with some methodological problems,” directing his Twitter
followers to read a National Journal
story<http://decoded.nationaljournal.com/2012/04/four-recent-national-polls-inc.php>
criticizing
Gallup polls showing a Romney lead.
In that National Journal piece, Ron Brownstein wrote that the polls showing
Romney leading the president had “a sample that looks much more like the
electorate in 2010 than the voting population that is likely to turn out in
2012.”
Internally, Gallup officials discussed via email how to respond Axelrod’s
accusations. One suggested that it “seems like a pretty good time for a
blog response,” and named a potential writer.
In response to that suggestion, another senior Gallup official wrote — in
an email chain titled “Axelrod vs. Gallup” — that the White House “has
asked” a senior Gallup staffer “to come over and explain our methodology
too.”
